I don't know, Jackie, I was just really hoping you'd come. I know it's not your thing, but you and Scottie are my closest friends here, and after all I threw at Tal, it'd be sort of nice to show him that I have good people here who might actually like me.
But I understand if you'd rather not. I guess he can just hear a few stories, and he'll know I'm not making you up. Don't even worry about it.
